Back to the BBS - Part six: The #Demoscene

Although not part of BBSes per se, a lot of the demoscene started from distributing software that showed off the capabilities of what a computer could do. The demoscene is still going strong. This documentary charts back the history and the current day, introducing where demos came from, what the demoscene is all about, speaking to the legendary Jim ’Trixter’ Leonard (@The Oldskool PC ) of 8088 MPH and Mobygames fame, as well as Vegard ’Shady’ Skjefstad of the Crusaders, founder of The Gathering demoparty in Norway, as well as Bill ’Retrotech’ Hart (of @PCRetroTech ) and Rowan ‘Cthulu’ Lipkovits.
